  Abstract

With less than two years before the proposed closure of the Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) and its Detention Facility, it is still unclear where individuals sentenced by the SCSL will serve their sentences. Drawing on qualitative empirical research, the author analyses the statutory options for the implementation of the sentences of imprisonment imposed by the SCSL. She also makes recommendations for the development of international penal policy and suggests structural reforms for international enforcement systems.
